About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Experience an incredible opportunity to be part of our project at Krosno's BWA Art Gallery. We are looking for 12 creative volunteers to join us for a monthly short-term team volunteering project! Collaborate with artists, creators, graphic designers, and educators to raise awareness of ecological problems we face in the modern world and try out some sustainable ways of expression through art — no matter your area of interest and level of artistic skills. Our experienced professionals will guide you, helping you enhance your creative abilities and gain valuable knowledge about ecology. Krosno is a charming town in southeastern Poland, rich in history and natural beauty. Located near the Bieszczady Mountains, Krosno boasts lush landscapes, vibrant forests, and a thriving artistic community. The town is famous for its glass industry, medieval architecture, and welcoming atmosphere, making it an ideal setting for a project that merges ecology and art.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Come and join our artistic community in Krosno to enjoy the fantastic benefits of being close to nature. As a volunteer, you will receive free accommodation in a two-room flat, where you will share a double room with another volunteer. In addition, you will receive a daily cash allowance for food and pocket money, along with reimbursement for travel expenses. Your accommodation is located in the centre of the medieval square market, so there is no need to worry about local transportation.

🎒 Leisure activities

During your mobility, you will have the opportunity to take part in a range of workshops and activities focused on ecology and different forms of art. We'll also organize trips to nearby towns and nature spots. The program will end with an art exhibition featuring work created by the participants during their time here, exploring the connections between art and ecology.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We are looking for volunteers interested in art and aware of the ecological problems of the modern world. People who are concerned about climate change and want to raise awareness of that and the ones who want to make small changes in their daily lives to do less damage to the planet Earth. You don't need to be an expert in ecology or have a huge artistic background. Our program is a great opportunity to learn all of that as long as you are excited about new opportunities and ready to take some action.
Deadline: Application deadline: 23/06/2024

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
